R-II District has two new principals When the Paris R-II students return on Tuesday, Aug. 20 there will be two new principals at the helm of the Coyote ship. The secondary principal is new but well known to the students as Chris Willingham has been selected by the Board of Education to run the junior high and high school. Willingham is no stranger to the student body as he has taught and coached in the district for a few years. He will be replacing John Wiggans who resigned at the end of the past school year. At the elementary school, Troy Patterson is the new principal taking the reins from Superintendent Chris Johnson who stepped in when the former principal Wendi Woods resigned for personal reasons in the middle of the school year. Principal Chris Willingham Chris Willingham is a local guy, graduating from Paris High School and then receiving his undergraduate degree in Secondary Education with an emphasis in Social Studies. After graduation Willingham started his education career at Community R-Vi where he, “did about everything.” While there he taught 6th grade social studies and also junior high and high school social studies while coaching multiple sports. After Community R-VI Willingham moved on to his hometown school Paris R-II. At Paris, Principal Willingham taught high school history and coached varsity boys’ baseball and girls’ varsity basketball. “I knew from early on that I liked to help classmates learn and always wanted to help out,” said Principal Willingham

about why he went into education. “I always felt like I fit into some leadership role and I wanted to help kids. I wanted to coach and stay involved in sports and it gave me an avenue to do that.” Principal Willingham was quick to note that the biggest strength he brings to his new position is his leadership ability and his ability to communicate with
others. “This school has a community feel,” said Principal Willingham. “Our students take a great deal of pride in Paris High School and we do a good job of celebrating our successes. With the continuity of our faculty we do have a community feel here at Paris High School.” Principal Willingham enjoys family
renewable power from western Kansas to Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, and states farther east. Similar to the trains that carry grain harvested in the Midwest to eastern markets, the Grain Belt Express Clean Line will move wind energy from its source in the grain belt of the county to markets with strong demand for lowcost, clean power. According to their spokesperson, the Grain Belt Express Clean Line will create thousands of temporary jobs and hundreds of permanent jobs, reduce pollution, save water relative to traditional electric generation, and, in a future with electric vehicles, will help improve our national security and diversify America’s energy supply. Clean Line Facts The Grain Belt Express Clean Line
will transport clean power via an approximately 750-mile overhead, highvoltage direct current (HVDC) transmission line. The development and construction of the Grain Belt Express Clean Line is an estimated $2 billion investment that will enable approximately $7 billion of new, renewable energy projects to be built. The Grain Belt Express Clean Line will deliver enough clean, renewable energy to power approximately 1.4 million homes, dramatically reducing pollutants by millions of tons. Renewable energy generators and utilities that purchase transmission capacity on the line will pay for usage of the Grain Belt Express Clean Line. The Grain Belt Express Clean Line
Grain Belt Express could bring revenue
During an informational meeting, on Wednesday, July 31, at the Knights of Columbus Hall, in Monroe City, local residents, including the Monroe County Commissioners and 40th District Representative Jim Hansen (R-Frankford), were introduced to the Grain Belt Express Clean Line. “We gave them a letter of support,” said Monroe County Western District Commissioner Glenn E. Turner. “The use fees if this project goes through Monroe County would be quite sizeable,” said Presiding Commissioner Mike Minor. Possible routes presented included a route through Monroe and Ralls Counties. The Grain Belt Express Clean Line will deliver 3,500 megawatts of low cost,

To Tune In or Tune Out - That is the Question
BY DAVID EALES EDITOR appeal@parismo.net
Administration... Last week I discussed that it takes a community to raise and educate a child. Wow... is all I can say as I have toured our schools and talked to our local administration. I would match the quality of our school administration including superintendents and principals with any district in the country. Talking to our administrators about their academic ideas and educational philosophies was definitely a learning experience for me. The enthusiasm, pride and ability of these educators is second to none. Our local superintendents including Paris R-II Superintendent Chris Johnson, Madison C-3 Superintendent Lesa Rapert, Holliday C-2 Superintendent Kelly Williams and Middle Grove C-1 Superintendent Scott Salmons all have the best interests of our children at the head of their list. I have talked to our local principals including Madison C-3 Principal Trisch Vessar and the new Paris
DAVID EALES
R-II Principals Chris Willingham and Troy Patterson. These forward thinking educators have new and innovative ideas that they will incorporate into the classrooms through the teachers and staff. These principals put the education and training of our children above all else. Are they perfect? Of course not but you cannot fault them for not trying. With changing processes in education it is encouraging to have administrators in charge that can lead the way for our children into the next steps of their learning. Good luck to all our administrators, teachers and staff in this successful school year. Have a great week!
MY TURN
When I was younger, I use to get so frustrated at my mom when I was asking her something and she would not answer me. It was if she had tuned me out and was not listening to a word I was saying. I could be standing smack dab in front of her and it was like she was looking right through me. As a child I thought, “Why was she not listening to me?” Well, now twenty five plus years later I fully understand. If my mom did not sometimes tune me or her other six children out we would have drove her crazy or shall I say even more crazy than we did. She had to ignore some of the constant fights, tattle tellers and questions to be able to keep some peace within herself. I have learned that being able to tune out noises, fights and other sibling problems is a skill that I do not fully posses but a skill that I desperately need to improve. The very thing
The Costs of College Are Still Rising The U.S. Senate recently passed a bill that tied the new interest rates on student loans to the yield on 10 year U.S. Treasury notes. The rates on Stafford loans are scheduled to raise from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent or double, before the passage of the Senate bill. If the bill is finally passed by the House, the rate drops to 3.86 percent for all undergraduate loans made for the incoming fall classes whether subsidized or not. This rate would be good for the entire life of the loan and the bill caps the undergraduate loans at a maximum rate of 8.25 percent. The Budget Office projects that the bill would help the federal deficit by $710 million over 10 years. But in the next 2 years the bill increases the debt by $8.1 billion in 2013 and 12.7 billion in 2014 which project an increase to students. The interest charged
on the loans are only a small part of the size of the debts students are facing for college two thirds of the calls of 2011 graduated with an average debt of $26,600 and going up with increase in tuition cost. The easy way in which loans are available and the tax breaks for college results in increasing tuition because more money is made available by the government. It is a spiral that is troubling to parents and students looking at colleges. The solutions are not easy but we can at least start with cutting off loans to colleges that get very expensive and require colleges to share in the risk of loan defaults by students. Otherwise, as President Obama said in a speech at Warrensburg, Missouri recently “There will never be enough money” if college cost continue to rise. He is right and steps should be taken to stem the rise in cost starting now. RJF
Save The RFS (Renewable Fuel Standard) Dear Editor, My name is Brad Callison. I am the commodities manager at Poet Biorefining, in Laddonia. My plant directly employs over 40 individuals who contribute to the overall ethanol industry, which supports nearly 400,000 American jobs. Ethanol creates jobs, and boosts our national economy, as our industry contributed more than $40 billion to the nation’s gross domestic product in 2012. And the ethanol industry is doing it without the subsidies that ended in 2011. I don’t know about you, but I remember when gas prices were under $2 per gallon and then under $3 per gallon. Those days are long gone and I am tired of the spikes and being gouged at the pump when we have a ready alternative to offset prices at the pump. Allowing consumers the choice of gasoline with 15 percent ethanol will lower prices for you and me, will put more money into our nation’s economy and rural communities, and help reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. But, if Big Oil has its way, you and I won’t get that choice - the choice to fuel up with cleaner, homegrown, 113 octane ethanol, that is selling at a $0.80/gallon discount to gasoline today. It’s time for consumers to have a choice and savings at the pump The oil industry is trying to maintain their monop-

that frustrated me about my mom when I was younger is the very thing I desire now. I was really wishing I had the ability to tune out when my children and I were in the car last week waiting for my husband to come out of the store. Things were okay for about the first forty seconds and then BOOM the chaos began. First my older son was fighting with my younger son about who knows what but I remember these words being said over and over: Uh Huh, Nuh Uh, Uh Huh, Nuh Uh, Uh Huh, Nuh Uh. My younger son likes to keep things going so I told my older son to stop. Of course he said, “But mom he keeps bugging me and won’t quit.” So I told him to just ignore him. Well, why did I say that because now my older son was say-

All yesteryears are reprinted in the exact text of the original issue
90 Years Ago Aug. 10, 1923 New Orchestra Gives Dance: A new Paris musical organization made its first appearance at the Legion Hall Monday evening when it played for a dance attended by around fifteen couples and a host of spectators. The new six-piece orchestra is composed of Miss Beulah Patton, pianist; Bob Dry, violin; Temple Morgett, clarinet; Charles Dry, clarinet; Tracy Putnam, saxophone; Fredrick Greer, cornet, Edward Buerk, flute. Annual Meeting Thursday: The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Paris Country Club will be held at the club house Thursday evening, July 9. Three new directors and officers of the organization will be elected. Following the business meeting, a dance will be held. The meeting was originally called for Friday evening but later changed to Thursday in deference to the memory of President Warren G. Harding, whose funeral will be held Friday. All members are urged to be present and vote on the new directors. The three retiring are C. E. Smith, Aris Curtright and Caskie Curtright. Thursday’s meeting will be a business session and only stockholders are expected. Wind Storm Damage: Out on the K. Curtright farm, southwest of Paris, a heavy wind carried away one outbuilding and blew over several
trees, Sunday night. At Aris Curtright’s, part of the corn was flattened out on the ground. Although there was a heavy wind at many other points in the county, it did little if any damage elsewhere. In the Curtright neighborhood, the two farms mentioned seemed to have been hit harder than any others. 75 Years Ago Aug. 11, 1938 Appointed as Indexers: Mrs. Lela Vanlandingham and Wallace Beacom were selected last week by the county court as the two who would do the work of indexing records in the offices of the county clerk and circuit clerk. The project is WPA work. Paris Special Spent $4,974.02: Both the Paris Special Road District and the Stoutsville Special Road District made their annual financial reports to the county court last week, the Paris report, filed by Lloyd Krummel, the treasurer, showing that the district started the year with $2,083.23 on hand, received $4,441.66 during the year, and spent $4,974.02, leaving a balance of $1,520.89 in the treasury on the first day of August. The Stoutsville report, filed by Lambert Buckman, treasurer, showed that the district started the year with $253.94 on hand, received $2,138.30 during the year, spent $2,240.84, leaving a balance on hand of $151.73.

one question after the other. Now the only thing I could do before losing it was to try really, really hard to tune them all out. I decided I was going to ignore everything and think about things outside of what was going on. I sang to myself, I prayed, I thought about what I had to do later. I was not coming out of this zone unless someone was bleeding. I wish I could say I succeeded but I would not be telling the truth. I managed to ignore it for a brief period but then I got back into the game of chaos and tried to referee. So now when I am in a store and I see a mom who has one child hanging off the side of the cart screaming and another child saying over and over again- mom, mom, mom, mom and yet another child sliding around on the floor but she does not seem to notice. I know she has mastered the art of tuning out and I say, “More power to her!”

ing, “I’m ignoring you, I’m ignoring you, I’m ignoring you. I’m ignoring you. This only made my younger son feel like he had to respond back in an even louder voice than before: “No you’re not, no you’re not, no you’re not, no you’re not. Second, my other son was mad because he didn’t get to go in to the store with his dad so he was kicking the back of his sister’s seat over and over and over again. My older son took a short break from fighting with his brother to complain to me about how the noise of his other brother kicking the seat was irritating him. My daughter tried to make her brother feel better by telling him maybe next time daddy would let him go in but the only respond she got was, “Stop talking to me!” So my daughter-bless her heart- decided to try and sing some upbeat happy songs amidst all the chaos to see if things would calm down. Needless to say, things did not calm down and she decided instead to ask me question after question about anything and everything. On top of two children bickering and one child kicking the seat, I then had my daughter asking me

evening, with evening sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and an afternoon show on Tuesday only. The Oliver Amusement Co., featuring rides, shows and concessions, will be on the grounds all week, starting Monday night and running through the Fair and through Friday and Saturday nights after the Fair. Admission to the carnival will be free to anyone coming to the Fair. Admission to the fairgrounds during the three evening and one afternoon show will be 15c for children and 35c for adults. 50 Years Ago Aug. 8, 1963 Big Rattlesnake: One of the largest timber rattlers seen here recently, one that measured four feet in length, was killed recently on the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Milan Ross, northeast of Santa Fe. It had lost its rattles, and because of that was therefore more dangerous, as it would have given no signal before striking. Frank Infield dressed out the meat. Paris Lowers The Tax Levy: The Paris tax levy was reduced Tuesday night from $1.40 to $1.30 on the $100 taxable valuation. Action to this effect was taken by the City Council after the State Tax Commission had put a 10% raise on all real estate in Paris and elsewhere in Monroe County, raising the Paris valuation to $1,800,160. The Council estimated that the $1.30 levy will bring in approximately as much on the higher valuation as
the $1.40 levy would have brought in on the lower valuation. This is according to the state law which states that levies must be reduced after a raise in valuation by the state. The new levy is divided as follows: sinking fund 53c, cemetery 25c, library 14c, street improvement 13c, fire department 6c, and general revenue 19c. 25 Years Ago Aug. 11, 1988 Optimists to host Water Olympics: The Paris Optimist Club, in cooperation with the Monroe County Swim Club, is sponsoring the First Annual Paris Water Olympics on Aug. 21 at 3 p.m. at the Swim Club pool. The Olympics are designed to provide the opportunity for competition and sportsmanship for the area youth. All young people of the Paris community ages 6-13 are eligible to compete in the Olympics. There will be many events for swimmers and non-swimmers alike. There will be a 20 yard race for swimmers from 6-8 years, a 25 yard race for 9-11, and a 25 yard race for 12-13 year olds. There will also be a walking race, a ping pong ball blowing contest, a water balloon toss, and a bucket filing race. Medals will be given for the first three places in each event and all participants will receive a ribbon. The Optimists will also sponsor an open swim date on Monday, Aug. 22 from 6-8 p.m. Again, all area youth aged 14 and under are invited. There is no charge for either event.

Lesters concert at Paris Christian Church Aug. 9
The Lesters will appear at the Paris Christian Church on Friday, Aug. 9, at 7 p.m. The Lesters, from St. Louis, often called “St. Louis’ First Family of Gospel Music,” have been sharing the Word through song for four generations. With more than an 80-year history and numerous albums behind them, the group proudly brings the third & fourth generation to the stage for a sound that is 100% “PURE LESTER.” Truly, The Lesters are — “A FAMILY FOR THE FAMILY.” Their signature sound is a blend of inspired arrangements and vocal artistry, led by longtime performer BRIAN LESTER. Brian, who also serves as emcee and manager, has been singing with the family since he was four. His vibrant voice and easy rapport with audiences ministers to young and old alike. As a fourth generation performer, JONATHAN LESTER brings a real freshness to the group. Like his father, Brian, Jon was “born to sing,” performing at a very young age. But he remains inspired by the generations of Lesters who went before him and by the message of God’s eternal grace. Newest addition to The Lesters is vocalist JUSTIN WELLS. Justin is an extremely talented young man with an extraordinary voice, as well as an accomplished musician. He has been on staff as worship leader at the Church of the Nazarene in Science Hill, Kentucky for the last several years. His heart’s desire as he joins with “the family” is to share the joy of knowing Christ through song and testimony. The Lesters take pride in their family heritage, but consider God’s greater family as the real reason for their continued work. As they prayerfully pass their legacy to future generations, The Lesters hope to move others to a deeper level of spiritual commitment. MISSION STATEMENT: The Lesters is a ministry dedicated to leading people to Jesus by sharing the joy of Christ through music and personal testimony.

Judge Rachel Bringer Shepherd, Presiding Judge of the Tenth Circuit, recently announced that the Office of State Court Administrator has approved her requests for video conferencing equipment for each courthouse in the Tenth Circuit. The courthouses in Hannibal, New London, Palmyra, and Paris each received video conferencing equipment purchased by the Office of State Courts Administrator (OSCA) on July 24 and July 25. The video conferencing systems include a television, cart, video camera, and three years of maintenance paid for by OSCA. The systems in each courthouse are connected to the secure computer network of the Missouri Supreme Court. Judge Bringer Shepherd applied to the Office of State Courts Administrator last Fall for the video conferencing systems for each courthouse and received notification earlier this summer that her requests had been approved. Judge Shepherd explained that the units will
expand the ability of all the judges in the Tenth Circuit to allow individuals confined in the Department of Corrections or county jails with video conferencing equipment to appear in court by video. Judge Shepherd noted that increased appearances by video of confined individuals will reduce transportation costs for county taxpayers and decrease the security risks inherent in transporting inmates. Two video hearings were held on Thursday, Aug. 1, in the Monroe County Courthouse with confined individuals in the Randolph County Jail. Several hearings are scheduled next week between the Ralls and Marion County Courthouses, Department of Corrections facilities, and the Monroe County Jail. Judge Bringer Shepherd stated, “I am very grateful to the Office of State Courts Administrator for approving the requests of the Tenth Circuit to increase public safety and reduce costs for county taxpayers.”

Troop B to participate in two highway programs Captain James E. Wilt, commanding officer of Troop B, Macon, announces upcoming plans for Troop B officers to participate in Operation C.A.R.E. and 20-Mile Trooper enforcement programs over the 2013 Labor Day weekend. The Missouri State Highway Patrol will be participating in Operation C.A.R.E. (Combined Accident Reduction Effort) during the long holiday weekend. This means every available officer will be on the road enforcing traffic laws and assisting motorists. The counting period for the Labor Day weekend will be from 6 p.m., Friday, Aug. 30, to 11:59 p.m., Monday, Sept.2. Additionally, Troop B officers will be conducting a 20-Mile Trooper project on U.S. Highway 61 throughout the Troop B area, and portions of U.S. Highways 36 and 63
on Aug. 30, and Sept. 2. During this enforcement program, troopers will be assigned to 20-mile intervals in an effort to step up traffic enforcement with a goal of reducing traffic crashes over the holiday weekend. “The Labor Day weekend is the last long holiday weekend of the summer and many people will be traveling on Missouri roadways,” stated Captain Wilt. “I would like to urge all motorists to make sure safe driving is a part of your plans. Make sure everyone is wearing a seat belt, and never drink and drive.” The Patrol encourages motorists and watercraft operators to protect themselves by making sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint and everyone in the vessel is wearing an approved life jacket.

oly over the liquid fuels market. Keeping renewable fuels, like higher blends of American-made ethanol out of the market means less competition for oil companies and less choice for consumers. E15 is the most tested fuel in history, with the Department of Energy testing 86 cars more than six million miles, plus millions of miles more on NASCAR tracks with absolutely no negative effects. E15 has been EPA approved for cars and light duty trucks model 2001 and newer, and more than 70 percent of the vehicles on the road today can safely use E15. Not to mention consumers will get more octane and payless at the pump. Who does not want more for less – at a time of record gas prices, I know I want a choice when I fill up. It’s time to stand up for a choice. It’s time to stand up for the RFS. In order to do this, we need your help. We need you to call Congress to stand up to Big Oil and protect the RFS. Let Congress know that the RFS is vital to keep us innovating and to keep rural America booming. www.poet.com/laddonia Brad Callison, Paris

Five reasons To Work AfterBy You Retire Nancy Baca, State Farm® Agent
Stay Fit Mentally, Physically, and Financially What do you want to do when you retire? Buy a motor home and hit the road? Learn a new language? Work part-time? For a growing number of American retirees, continuing to work makes perfect sense. Many find they simply run out of things to keep them busy, while others miss the camaraderie and sense of purpose work gave them. There’s also a very good chance of living a long time — to 85 or longer — which means being out of work and living off savings for 20 years or more. Whatever the situation, working after retirement can be both financially and personally rewarding. Here are a few things to consider when planning the next phase of your life. Financial Stability If you’re like most retirees, you may have enough savings and income from your retirement plan to cover the basics, but you’ll also need to consider inflation, long-term care, and rising medical costs. According to the 2013 Retirement Confidence Survey, only 14 percent of Americans are very confident they will have enough money to live in retirement. Working during retirement means it’s possible to keep your existing savings — and continue earning interest — while living off your extra income. Also, your pension benefits from your former employer are normally not affected unless you plan to return to work for them. Check with your plan provider to see if returning to work will have any impact on your benefits. If you want to start planning for the future, our Retirement Illustrated™ calculator can help get you started. Increase Your Social Security Benefits By working full- or part-time, you can delay the start of Social Security benefits. The longer you wait, up until the age of 70, the bigger your monthly Social Security check will generally be. See how much you can expect from Social Security. If you retire and begin to receive benefits before your full retirement age as defined by the Social Security Administration, your Social Security benefits may be reduced by as much as 30 percent, depending on the year you were born. See SSA.gov for more information. Once you reach full retirement age, you can work as much as you like without impacting your Social Security benefits. There are no earning limitations once you reach your full retirement age. However, you should consult your tax adviser regarding the tax consequences of such work arrangements on your social security benefits. Eligibility for Health Insurance Benefits For many retiring seniors, the high cost of medical care can be quite a shock when they are no longer part of a company plan. This is especially true if you retire before 65, the age you qualify for Medicare. And once you qualify and begin receiving Medicare, you may face significant out-of-pocket expenses including prescription drug costs. Even after you turn 65 and qualify for Medicare, it can be helpful to have additional health insurance through your employer because there are gaps in Medicare coverage. Having a job that pays medical benefits after you retire could save thousands of dollars a year in medical expenses. Social and Health Benefits Exercise, reading, and crossword puzzles may provide the stimulus to help stay fit mentally and physically, but working is also an excellent way to stay engaged. People who work after retirement often remain more active and socially connected, which can mean better overall health and fewer medical issues. Working part-time can give you a sense of being part of something without being tied to a career and long hours. A 2009 study published in the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology concluded those who work following retirement reported being generally healthier and happier than their fully retired peers, whether they worked full-time or part-time. Other studies have shown that working can delay the onset of age-related diseases like dementia. An Encore Career Retirement can be the start of a whole new career, but it doesn’t have to be the same old work. Many seniors thrive in encore careers. You can begin a job that lets you give back to the community or channels your passion into your own small business. An encore career provides a second chance at job satisfaction. A 2008 study by the Families and Work Institute found that people who go back to work while in retirement are more satisfied with their jobs than people who have not yet managed to retire. Let your imagination be your guide to a retirement career. AARP has some great resources on helping you start a second career.

Our life can be difficult as was the Apostle Paul’s life. Paul writes to the Corinthians, “I came to you in weakness, and fear and with much trembling”. Jesus was Paul’s foundation, the bedrock of everything. Great wisdom and guidance comes from Christ. When we take the elements of the Lord’s Supper we are remembering Jesus. Paul says that all his education, training and position were not enough. Christ is our sustainer. Paul says in verse 4, “My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power. In verse 5, he says faith is not based on man’s wisdom and learning, but God. Steve Ensor sang, “Table of Grace”.

A nation such as ours has a wide array of celebrities: musicians, athletes, movie stars, governmental leaders, and so on. Over time, we have unfortunately become somewhat accustomed to celebrity scandal...drug problems, crime, sexual misconduct, and political corruption. We become less than favorably impressed with some of them, wondering how they could betray the public that once so very much admired them. While watching a movie one evening, I realized that the lead character was portrayed by an actor who had recently visited a third world Communistic country, and from there ranted against us...the USA. The actor stood up on stage with the dictator who controlled that small country; unashamedly and unabashedly ridiculing our country and the social structures we have established. Stepping back from this incident, one must consider a chilling fact: those whose lifestyles are less than becoming, whose standards are less than we would expect from a roll model, are only able to conduct their affairs with our blessing. We pay their wages: either by voting them into office (repeatedly) or by paying to attend, view, or hear the events they are a part of. It is we who enable them to act out their contemptible ideals. It is we who finance their bad habits. Were we sufficiently motivated, we could with our votes or with out checkbooks remove them from the limelight, dampening their ability Pastor John Grimmett to publicly act out.

The Sunday, Aug. 4 worship service of the Perry Christian Church began with Arlan Provancha singing “God Will Take Care of You”. Door greeters were Tom Hurley and Shirley Levings. Pastor Todd gave the Call to Worship. Tonight will be the Ice Cream Social at St. Paul Catholic Church. Monday Bible Study is on the Book of Daniel. Aug. 6 the church board met at 7 p.m. Aug. 7 the CWF met at 10 a.m., to view our cookbook proof and update call lists. The hymn of praise was “Soon and Very Soon.” We are thankful to know that David Evans and Zabette Elam (recovering from TGA) are both doing well. “Blessed Assurance, Jesus Is Mine” was sung for our Morning Prayer. Prayers were offered for John and Goldie Flowers, Ron Cragen’s granddaughter, Megan, Marvin Hodges, who is now at the Wellsville Care Center, and the family of Tom Hayes. “Lord, Listen to Your Children Praying” was the response. The Pastor’s meditation invited all to share in the Lord’s Supper. “Jesus Loves Me” was sung. Elders prayers were given by Joyce Coleman and Floyd Seelow, Deacons were LouAnn Hetrick, Tom Hurley, Anthony Elam and Wyatt Lewellen The special music was given by the children, “Stand Strong”, a song learned at VBS. Alisha Eisele gave the children a lesson on sharing and to not be greedy Luke 12:13-21 was read by Wyatt for the sermon, “Is It Better to Save or to Store Up”. Pastor Todd said to consider what we do with the many blessings we receive from God. We have a great opportunity to invest in those around us by sharing our blessings with them. The invitation hymn was “Is My Name Written There” followed by the benediction and closing with “Lord, Dismiss Us”.
The services at South Fork Presbyterian church on Sunday, Aug. 4, began with Patti Grimmett playing “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” on the piano followed by Pastor John Grimmett leading all in the Call to Worship from Psalm 146 and the Unison Prayer of Confession.

Pastor John and Patti played guitar as she sang “More Holiness Give Me”. The message “Above All” was based on scripture from Colossians 3:1-17 as Paul gives advise to a congregation - to believe in Jesus! We are all in equal standing with God. Sing with gratitude to God in everything you do for Jesus Christ. We live in a crude - rude world - we have to get rid of the trash in our lives - take out the trash! Reflect your mind on things above what ever you are doing - do in the name of Jesus Christ, be thankful... We are different! We are Gods chosen people - so be careful what you say! Give kindness and love... A ceremony for Vaneda Orth was given by Pastor John Grimmett welcoming her to the family of God, at South Fork Presbyterian Church.

Principal Willingham enjoys family time and also likes to play sports including golf softball and basketball. He enjoys fishing and hunting and everything outdoors. “I feel fortunate to have grown up around Mark Twain Lake and I take advantage of that as much as possible,” said Principal Willingham. Principal Willingham and his wife Alisa have two daughters, Annie, 4 and Kate 2 with another child on the way. For the future – Principal Willingham hopes to still be the secondary principal in three to five years so he can add some continuity to the position. “I want to be successful here for a long time,” said Principal Willingham. Principal Willingham shared his education philosophy, “First of all, I believe that all people have the ability to learn and to continually better themselves. Schools are put in place to guide students to their futures and open doors to opportunities known or unknown. Education is the building block of who we are, and who we want to become. I believe that education is a continual process. Each and every day we have to continue to learn and strive to gain new knowledge. Schools provide the foundation of that knowledge and hopefully the drive to continue gaining knowledge. In my case, my education at Paris led me to pursue a college degree and a career in education. My early career in education led me to pursue my master’s degree in administration and led me to this point in my life. Paris had such an impact on me that I am thrilled to be back at Paris and thrilled to have an opportunity to try and excite students about their potential and about their futures so that someday they can give back to their communities. Preparing students to become successful, thriving adults, and citizens, is a major goal of mine as an administrator.” Principal Troy Patterson Principal Patterson grew up in Memphis, Mo., then graduated from Culver Stockton with a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education and Health. His first teaching po-
sition was at Revier C-3 (Clark County) where he taught for two years. After Revier, Principal Patterson was hired by Monroe City and taught there from 1999 until his move to Paris R-II. At Monroe City, he taught elementary and physical education and for the last four years he has been working as the A+ Coordinator, Athletic Director and the Technology Director. He also coached many sports in an assistant capacity and also was the varsity softball coach for the past seven seasons. “ Back when I was in high school I looked up Continued to page 5B

Common Core State Standards...
Is centralized educational planning or Common Core Standards going to be the death of home schooling and or private/parochial schools David Coleman, president of the College Board, was one of the primary writers of the Language Arts portion of Common Core. He was quoted as saying, “Common Core and SAT will be fully implemented.” Source: http://blogs.edweek.org This eventuality could affect those students who do not attend public school in a very profound way. As a whole, those who are home schooled or in private schools, usually perform better on tests than do children in public schools. If they do not comply with the new standards their SAT scores could be in jeopardy as well as scholarships or the ability to attend a college of their choice. The outcome could ultimately affect the students’ future in job selection. Common Core invades the private/parochial schools of Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Louisville and Arlington VA. The decision to adopt the common core standards in their private schools was because of concern that students would not perform well on college entrance exams geared toward common core curriculum. Not all school districts have agreed to this National standard. The School District of Castle Rock, Colorado has opted out of the Common Core. They stated the standards they had in place, were much more suited to their students. Choice for local control versus government control is at the heart of this debate.

2013 Back To School
Madison C-3 School District - First Day of School, Wednesday, Aug. 21 - Full Day
C-3 District Principal - Trisch Vessar
Welcome to a great 2013-14 school year! While many of us have enjoyed a summer vacation, the Madison C-3 custodial and maintenance staff has been working to prepare the building and classrooms for the new school year. As the summer winds down, many households are gearing up for that new year. Teachers, bus drivers, cooks, and secretaries are getting ready for students to begin arriving soon. For students, a new year always brings about changes, such as a new schedule with different teachers and classrooms, new school supplies, and maybe even new clothes. The beginning of the school year also provides a fresh start and an opportunity for students, teachers, and parents to reflect upon personal goals and expectations. As we meet the challenges of the new
school year, consider setting a vision of what you want to become in the future. Set goals for yourself and work to achieve those goals. Working interdependently to meet our goals and striving for excellence will help us all have a great year. Last year, Madison C-3 School District moved into its second year of Positive Behavior Support (PBS). As we embark on our third year of PBS, we will continue to provide a positive, safe environment where every student can achieve their maximum potential – academically and socially. We look forward to recognizing even more positive behavior throughout the school year. Also new last year was School-wide Title for our elementary school. School-wide Title allows the Title teachers to work actively with the teachers
and ALL students in the elementary classrooms. This extra resource offered as pull-out or pushin instruction, along with the help of the parents and students, will continue to help share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement. New this year Madison C-3 School District will be participating in a statewide collaborative intended to greatly improve student outcomes. Over 350 buildings (mostly elementary) representing all regions of the state, were asked to participate. The major elements of the work will draw on key teaching and learning practices coupled with formative assessments, analysis of results, and reteaching for all students. In addition to receiving support through the Regional Professional Devel-
opment Center (trainings, materials, resources, etc), the district will receive a small grant ($5000) to help offset some costs for each of the three years of the commitment to the collaborative. The primary focus for Madison C-3 will be mathematics curriculum and instruction. I truly believe that the true benchmark of a successful school is the success of the people in it… and Madison C-3 has some great people! I look forward to another successful year working with the Madison staff, parents, community, and especially the students. With Panther Pride,

Education is a Family Affair On average, teachers are with children about seven hours a day. What about the other 17 hours? Education doesn’t just happen in the classroom. Success in school is a family affair. Parents are the most important teachers a child will ever have, said Renette Wardlow, human development specialist for University of Missouri Extension. Parental involvement will assure better grades, improve behavior and make school a more positive experience. “Parents need to be very involved in their children’s education, and that starts with a positive attitude about education,” Wardlow said. When parents have a bad attitude about the entire school environment, that attitude tends to carry over to their children. “Just stay positive about it. Keep those negative comments to themselves.” Don’t just tell your children; show them, she said. Demonstrate Come See Us Forthe value of learning by reading to your children.

hard work. “Parents are tremendous role models, whether they believe that or not,” Wardlow said. “Children often mirror what their parents say and do. And we all know that oftentimes young children, especially, will say what’s on their mind, or repeat what they had heard in the past. So we have to watch what we say and do.” Wardlow suggests that parents set aside time every day to talk about school. Whether it’s during the drive to and from school, or during the family dinner, make sure your children know you are very interested in what they’re learning and how they’re doing in class. She also encourages parents to help their children learn the things they need to succeed at school. “Good study habits are absolutely essential,” Wardlow said. “I think that it’s important at the beginning of school time to set a plan—this will be study time, this will be the study place. It’s just a good idea to get the child tuned into a regular routine and a regular habit every day
so that the homework really is a priority each night.” Children can get very frustrated when they are trying to understand new concepts, Wardlow said. “It’s important for parents to maintain that positive attitude and encourage their child,” she said. It might require sitting down with them to try to explain further what the assignment is about. “Frustration is just part of life and trying to minimize it as much as possible will help that child feel better about their school experience.” Learning is a partnership between parent and teacher, Wardlow said. Be there for every parent conference and school event. If you see your child struggling, make an appointment with the teacher right away, and maintain good communication with both the teacher and school. Staying active and involved in your children’s education will help them succeed at school, prepare them for a lifetime of learning and prevent the awful surprise of a bad report card.

2013 Back To School PUBLIC NOTICE
Back-to-School at Holliday C-2 School
by Superintendent Kelly Williams
Mrs. Kelly Williams is the new Superintendent/ Principal of Holliday C-2 School for the 2013-2014 school year. Mrs. Williams brings nine years of experience in the educational field with a total of 20 years of experience in working with children and families. She resides with her husband, Jeff and four children in the rural Centralia area on a family farm. Mrs. Williams feels the education of a student is the responsibility of the school, parents, and community. That is one reason she is really excited to be a part of the Holliday school system where it is already occurring. One important key to education is providing students with a positive environment where they are given skills to be successful today and in the future. Indicators of school success and higher student achievement are items like positive school board support, good teacher negotiation, mission statements, funding, and exciting clear goals for students. These are evident when looking at the Holliday C-2 school district. The Holliday C-2 School believes that education is the commitment of the community, parents, students, faculty and staff. Our mission is to provide learning opportunities and role models
that encourage the building of strength and character. It is the responsibility of the Holliday C-2 School District to provide an educational environment for children of the district, which will foster and accelerate their intellectual, physical, social, and career development. In order for this to happen, the teachers, students and parents have to work together to fulfill their roles in the educational process. Mrs. Williams feels that the Holliday C-2 Schools have a lot to offer students and provide an authentic learning environment where students are excelling at high levels. This is something she will strive to assist in continuing at Holliday. She looks forward to working with the staff, students, families, and the community in the upcoming year. The School Board members of the Holliday C-2 School are: David Pence, President, Mendy Blades, Vice-President, Megan Day, Secretary, Heather Hayes, Treasurer, Andrew Williams, member, Sarah Callison, member, Debbie Ragsdale, member and Edith Ensor, member.

School lunch program again facing changing standards
High-calorie sports drinks and candy bars will be removed from school vending machines and cafeteria lines as soon as next year, replaced with diet drinks, granola bars and other healthier items. The Agriculture Department said Thursday that for the first time it will make sure that all foods sold in the nation’s 100,000 schools are healthier by expanding fat, calorie, sugar and sodium limits to almost everything sold during the school day. That includes snacks sold around the school and foods on the “a la carte” line in cafeterias, which never have been regulated before. The new rules, proposed in February and made final this week, also would allow states to regulate student bake sales. The rules, required under a child nutrition
law passed by Congress in 2010, are part of the government’s effort to combat childhood obesity. The rules have the potential to transform what many children eat at school While some schools already have made improvements in their lunch menus and vending machine choices, others still are selling high-fat, highcalorie foods. Current standards already regulate the nutritional content of free and low-cost school breakfasts and lunches that are subsidized by the federal government, but most lunchrooms also have the “a la carte” lines that sell other foods – often greasy foods like mozzarella sticks and nachos. Under the rules, those lines could offer healthier pizzas, low-fat hamburgers, fruit cups or yogurt, among other foods that meet the standards. One of the big-
Enough sleep important for elementary students Getting enough sleep is important for classroom success as well as physical and emotional development. Most elementary school children need 10-11 hours of sleep per night, says Susan MillsGray, University of Missouri Extension health and nutrition education specialist. Parents should establish a regular bedtime routine and consistent wake-up time, Mill-Gray says. “Your child needs to go to bed at the same time each evening and get up at the same time each morning,” she says. “That’s one of the best things you can do for your children. They really respond best to a routine.” Mills-Gray suggests that about an hour before bedtime parents begin slowing down the evening by stopping rough play, running and other highenergy activities. Turning off televisions, computers and iPads also helps their brains settle down. “Quieting both physical and mental activity is needed to prepare for sleep,” Mills-Gray says. “That would be a good The
time to have them start brushing their teeth, putting on pajamas, maybe some quiet reading time and then lights out.” Sleep, or lack of it, can have a big effect on mood and behavior, she notes. “When children are tired. they become much more stubborn, irritable and cranky,” she says. “Also, children who don’t get enough sleep may have more behavior problems at school.” Mills-Gray recommends shifting to the new routine a week or two before the start of school, letting the child adjust to the sleep schedule by the beginning of school. School-age children commonly resist going to bed when they’re supposed to, which can be frustrating, but MillsGray says parents need to establish standards and limits. “Just being very clear as a parent about what bedtime is, when the lights are going out and what your expectations are and sticking to those will make things go much smoother,” she says. “They have to know that you mean what you say.”
gest changes under the rules will be a near-ban on high-calorie sports drinks, which many beverage companies added to school vending machines to replace high-calorie sodas that they pulled in response to criticism from the public health community. The rule would only allow sales in high schools of sodas and sports drinks that contain 60 calories or less in a 12-ounce serving, banning the highest-

A new school year often means new school supplies, but there are ways to recycle and save. For some families, the cost new supplies can be a burden, and many schools send parents a lengthy list of needed items. Putting together a mix of new and used supplies can help ease the cost, says Lucy Schrader, coordinator of University of Missouri Extension’s Building Strong Families program. Oftentimes, notebooks, colored pencils and other items are still in good shape from the previous school year, and some schools send supplies home at the end of the year. “Getting students involved can help them understand how reusing supplies is resourceful and how it can be good for the family financially,” Schrader says. “You can also talk about trade-offs and how decisions impact the family in different ways,” she adds. “For example, if your youth reuses a backpack from last year, what can the family do with the money that was saved? Can you use it for a fun activity during the year instead, such as roller skating, going out to eat or buying something for another family who might have special needs?” Going through this process can help youth get a better idea of costs and how they can be a part of the decision-making process, she says. Schrader offers some

ing on academic excellence and attendance this coming year. Please check your student’s handbook for any changes in procedures and for other important information. Also, please keep in mind there have been some changes in the teaching and administrative staff, therefore, at times they may not be familiar with the usual routines. We appreciate your patience as we work through the first few weeks of school. As always, the safety of our students is very important. We ask that when a child is going home in a different way than usual or is being picked up by someone else, please notify the office before 2:00 p.m. You will also see new security features in our buildings this year. Security cameras will have been installed before school begins, along with entry intercoms. All outside doors will be locked and you will be buzzed into the schools. This added security helps keep your child safe. Please call or come by the office of your child’s building if you should have any questions, need clarification, or have any concerns. As we all work together, we will make this a great and successful school year for the students, parents, and faculty of Paris Schools. Sincerely, Chris Johnson Superintendent, Paris R-II

tips on reusing school supplies: Tear out used pages from spiral and composition notebooks. Some kids only fill a few pages out of several notebooks, which leaves a large part of the notebooks with good, usable pages. To spruce up an old notebook, decorate the cover with stickers and duct tape to create a “new,” one-of-a-kind notebook. Other possible items to reuse if they are in good condition: School boxes. Pink erasers (still work even if partly used). Markers (test markers to see if they still work). Colored pencils (can be sharpened and reused). Folders. Crayons. Backpacks and bags can be traded or recycled. If kids want a new design, think about adding a patch or beads or something to hang from the zipper pull to give last year’s pack a new look. Siblings or friends might trade backpacks for a year to get a different color or design without paying for

receiving items later. Donate supplies you won’t be using. If you have crayons, markers, paints, paper or other supplies that you will not be using but are still in good shape, Schrader suggests donating them to those who can still get plenty of use from them, such as after-school programs, day cares or summer camps.

spending time with family. He and his wife Trisha, reside in Monroe City and have two children, a 10 year old son Bo and a one year old daughter Bralynn. Principal Patterson sees himself in the same position as today in five years. “I think I will bring stability to the district,” added Principal Patterson. “We have a good superintendent here that will guide us along the way and Chris (Principal Willingham) and I will
get to learn the positions together,” said Principal Patterson. “I think we will be a great team.” Principal Patterson also shared his educational philosophy: “I would like everyone to know that I am going to always make decisions on “What’s best for kids!” I use this as my guiding principal and I feel if I keep this in mind, good will ultimately come out in the end. I want to see all students succeed, not only in the classroom but in life.”
Grain Belt Express Clean Line... Continued from front will reduce water withdrawal from lakes and rivers by billions of gallons per year – that’s water that would otherwise be needed for cooling thermal power plants. According to company information, the Grain Belt Express Clean Line is estimated to provide more than 5,000 construction jobs to construct the transmission
line and wind farms and more than 500 permanent jobs to maintain and operate the wind farms and the transmission line. The Grain Belt Express Clean Line will create employment opportunities in many sectors including manufacturing of turbines, towers and cable, and hospitality. Construction of a major infrastructure project
such as the Grain Belt Express Clean Line requires coordination with and review and approval by many government entities. The project is in the early stages of development and is expected to take five to seven years to obtain the required approvals and to complete construction.

She greatly enjoyed church activities. We thank all those making visits, sending cards and flowers; especially the visit of the children, the singing during her stay at Benchmark Loma Linda Nursing Home. We thank Dr. Donald Delwood, M.D. and Dr. Mark Vellek, M.D., for care given to Bonny at Boone Hospital and the Missouri Cancer Associates. Dr. Vellek, assisted our sign-up for Hospice Compassus Care. The nurses from Macon Hospice Care Unit are angels. Their care given to our sister during her last days in this life were the best anyone could hope for.

Also our thanks to Mrs. Hazel Downey for her assistance with last rite arrangements. We do not overlook the lovely lunch prepared by church members.
